We have sonic shower thoughts. Now we have sonic toilet epiphanies!? Awesome!

Clear is now a TSA “vendor” for the precheck process. The machines they use for the sign up process - at least the airport I was at - don’t have the eye scanning camera in the kiosk.

The Clear representative I was asking questions of had said they don’t require eye scans for Clear, though that is the default. People can ask to use just fingerprints, which he said does disrupt the terminal process as the agents don’t think to ask if fingerprints were what was registered when the eye scans fail.

I am not advocating for Clear. I refuse to use them. I simply do want to call out that they are one of 3 who handle the process for the TSA now. People do have a choice of which of the three to use.

I’ve had the Eros E3.5s for a few years and they’ve not let me down on quality, especially at the price point.

I also considered those Mackie’s.

I just found their replacement in store. Check out my other comment below.

They’re (kinda) back!! I haven’t tried them yet, but I will.

I hope for the best! Sounds so sad, but you being strong may give him a chance.

I have a little guy I adopted. He checked out of the shelter fine, but as soon as we got him home, he wouldn’t eat. We tried different things and tried what the vet advised us to do. Three days and he ate nothing. Became fairly lethargic and barely responsive.

We started force feeding wet/pate cat food and baby food through a syringe. He fought slightly, but ate it and kept it down. Then one day I just happen to be working with some shredded chicken in the kitchen and he came over and meowed at me. I gave him a little and he actively ate it himself. I gave more and more and he ate all that too. I went to the store and grabbed a couple cans of wet shredded chicken cat food, brought it home and served it to him. He ate it up.

It was such a relief to see. That was a year and 5 months ago and he’s doing amazing. He still meows at me when I’m in the kitchen at lunchtime because he wants a little bowl of his chicken shreds, as that time of day is when I usually made it up for him when he was a kitten.

A few years ago, Morningstar used to have a vegetarian rib patty. Once I realized its potential as a vegetarian McRib, I bought a pack. It was delicious. I bought another pack.

And then it was gone from shelves in every store that had it.
